here's my main.css code
img { max-width; 100%; }
gallery {
margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }
gallery li {
float: left; width: 45%; margin: 2.5%; background-color: #f5f5f5; color: #bdc3c7; }
When I clicked on preview workspace, the pictures didn't resize (they are still big), and there are no margins that can be seen. I checked the syntax and it's all the same with the video.
Please help. Thanks all.

gallery li {
float: left; width: 45%; margin: 2.5%; background-color: #f5f5f5; color: #bdc3c7; }
